Hi friends! If you love matcha, or want to love it, then this recipe is for you. Matcha is rich in antioxidants and other beneficial plant compounds that help to reduce inflammation, boost cognitive health and memory, reduce stress and anxiety, support metabolic health, and so much more. Not only can matcha consumption support hormone health, but so can maca root, which is also in my matcha latte recipe.
For hormone health, PMS management, and fertility support, check out my organic Soothe herbal tincture.
Ingredients:
- 1 tsp organic, ceremonial grade matcha powder (this is my favorite)

- 1 medjool date, pitted
- Dash of ceylon cinnamon
- Dash of pure vanilla extract (omit if your almond milk contains vanilla)
- 2 tbsp full fat coconut milk (optional)
- 1 cup almond milk
Directions:
- Start by soaking the pitted medjool date in a mug with just enough water to cover it.
- Drain the liquid, or keep it, and place the date into a blender.
- Add in the remaining ingredients and blend thoroghly until frothy and well combined.
- Heat if desired, or enjoy cold with ice.
